Bueno FAmilia!
I
am feeling extremely tired today and am especially grateful it is
p-day:) We just got back from a lesson this morning teaching a man
named Eric. It was a sweet lesson and the Spirit was strong! Love
that.
This
has been a good week. I really don't have much to say to be
honest...lots of lessons, although it seems like we aren't able to
commit anyone to a baptismal date, or they can't keep their date because
they won't come to church. But here we are still working of course:)
Life is good. Today is kid of a gloomy day outside, rain and
darkness, but I am very happy it is a new month because it means we get
money on our cards to buy food! It normally is fine and I have more
than enough, but the months when we have 5 tuesdays in one month- those
are more difficult to make it stretch. I am looking forward to buying
lots of fresh fruit and veggies, because we don't really get any of that
from the members... just lots of carbs:)
February
2nd passed on Saturday--- which if you remember is the day that you
have to make tamales if you found the doll in the Rosca bread. Well- Han
Adams and I are now professional tamal makers! We took them over to
the house that we ate the bread at and they were literally shocked that
we had really made tamales:) It was quite hilrious! I might have been
more than a little prideful becuase they ate ALL of them...they thought
they wer dang good. hmmm. That's right. Soy Mexicana. So when I come
home next Christmas and all the fam is together, I'll make everyone
Tamales okay? Okay:) Donski
Juan
and the Cuellar family (from oceanside) are going to go through the San
Diego Temple next weekend to be sealed as a family! I am PRAYING that
president will give me permission to go! I so want to be there to
support them and see them as they take that step as a family! I hope
president says yes!
Found
out this week that Hna Kohrman( my trainer) is already engaged! To a
boy she had dated before. But still that was shocking and fun news:)
Happy for her:)
WE
were supposed to get to go to the Newport BEach temple today to do a
session, but whoever scheduled it must have been new because the temple
is closed through saturday. So that was a let down, but we are hoping
that it will get rescheduled for NEXT tuesday. Becuase I really want to
go:) And we don't get to go very often, and i LOVE THE TEMPLE!! So
great. PEace, love, joy, and the Spirit abound there. How blessed we are
to have sacred buildings like the temples surrounding us and that we
have the privilege to enter! So great.
Well
that is really all that I have to say today. I love you all more than
you know! Tomorrow marks my 8 month mark on the mission!!! Pure
craziness. Only 2 1/2 weeks left in the transfer (this is a weird
transfer of only 5 weeks instead of the normal 6- due to all the
missions in the world trying to get on the same transfer schedule) So
I'm pretty sure I will get transferred...sad news. But I'm ready for
it:)
Love you all and hope you have a GREAT week!
-Love,
Hna Whick
